Written Question

Department for Business and Trade: Magazine Press

Tuesday 5th March 2024

Asked by: Pat McFadden (Labour - Wolverhampton South East)

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how much funding her Department and its predecessor Department (a) allocated for (b) spent on magazine subscriptions in each of the last three financial years.

Answered by Greg Hands

The Department for Business and Trade has centrally managed subscriptions for the Economist and the Financial Times for financial years 2022/23 and 2023/24. Information on locally sourced and managed subscriptions is not routinely collected and to make it available could only be done at a disproportionate cost.
